Disney in August

Disney World in August is very hot and crowds are loaded with visitors.  But, as you approach the end of August, crowds begin to taper off as the different school districts begin their fall semester.  If you’re lucky enough to start back to school in September, you may want to plan a visit late in the month of August.  Remember to stay hydrated and take breaks out of the heat!
